Got my first Weaver coming - an RS-3 Diesel 3 rail with TMCC part of the Ultra Line . Quality looks very good from photos -- anyone one got Weaver locomotives and your experience?

You won't be disappointed. We have several of them. Which road name did you order?
I have several Weaver RS-3s with TMCC. Perfectly happy with all of them (all are in U.S. Army livery).
i got a Canadian National - green and grey - I am from Minnesota Eh? Looked like a pretty Alco.
Good choice.
Weaver RS3 with EOB speed control drive from a few years ago.
Weaver GP38-2
Weaver U25b that has a been upgraded.
Weaver Pennsy BP20 brass offering from a few years ago.
Weaver set of Pennsy E8's from the 90's that has been upgraded.
I have Weaver's RS-3 in Milwaukee Road colors pulling 3 heavyweight passenger cars. This is my version of the Milwaukee Road's North Woods Hiawatha consist in the 50's. I really like everything about the engine except the lack of smoke which I can live without.
Greg,
I have an older Weaver 0-8-0 Masonic Train that I like very much, it's an older Conventional type nicely built. Really wanted the Weaver Brass Pennys BP20 but did not have the money for it at the time. Weaver does build nice stuff, you will be happy with it.

I've got one. It's the older 4-6-2 N&W Pacific. Very nice details and I think it is deserving of an electronics upgrade as funds permit.
I would be so pleased to see a total re-run of the entire 2007 catalog. There's a lot of stuff in there that is still on my N&W wish-list.
